How do I get started?
Click Get started, then use Proto to configure SCM with Consignment Tracking for your business. Begin with one organization, one storage location, a consigned item and a reviewed receipt and use case.
Who prepares stock requests?
Inventory Coordinator records the item, site, quantity, required date and evidence for an assigned request.
Who decides whether a request proceeds?
Inventory Reviewer records an independent decision and reason against the request revision.
How are lots handled?
Each lot has a code, expiry date, owner reference and release state. Check these details before holding or using lot-tracked stock.
What is the difference between a reservation and a movement?
A reservation holds a quantity for a request. A posted movement records a signed physical stock effect.
When does usage become final?
Inventory Coordinator submits the used quantity and agreement context. Inventory Reviewer decides on that revision before it reaches Completed.
Can a posted quantity be corrected?
A compensating movement can link to the original movement, keeping both physical effects available for review.
Where do failed actions appear?
Operation exceptions show receipts marked Failed or needs review with the action, reason and parent request.
How does billing use this information?
Completed usage supplies consumed units and an agreement reference for a billing handoff. Agree the invoice connection and reconciliation procedure during setup.
